Why do Japanese greet the weather?

However, due to the different lifestyles, language habits and social psychology of various ethnic groups, the contents and methods are also different. For example, China people like to shake hands, Japanese people like to bow, and westerners are more accustomed to hugging, etc., all of which have deep social origins. As for language expression, they are even different from each other. For example, in China, we used to say "Nice to meet you" and "Long time no see" when we met, but now we often say "Hello". On the other hand, the Japanese say "good morning" and "good night", and they are also used to greeting with weather-related situations such as "it's so cold today" and "it's raining again". These are closely related to history, social culture and even people's psychological characteristics. Tracing back to the cultural origin in the characteristics of greetings should begin with the Japanese gratitude for everything and their integration with nature.
